Jose; Go for the transplant. There will be only one more upgrade for the classic where the M-power will have ability for advancement. My favorite feature is the record feature. I can record phone numbers, checks, notes and more with the press of a button. It is great for close up. You also get more memory.

I'm sure that you'll find many people who are willing to help you. I have used my Classic running 6.11 before receiving BrailleNote mPower from the school district. I enjoy it, particularly its connectivity and power. If you are going to move to the world of DAISY, the best way is to use "transplant" program. That way, you can have your old display while enjoying all the benefits of using latest technology. KeySoft 7.2 adds DAISY and USB CD-ROM support, so it is prepared for books on CD. In Classic, you have better file management, stats support in KeyPlus, and a wide range of functions. On the mPower, it has DAISY support, USB CD-ROM support, CompactFlash VGA (monitor) card support, and more. I would personally recommend that you take advantage of the "transplant" program to ensure that you have the latest technology availible today, while remembering old days by using your old display.
